Altenew March 2023 Stamp/Die/Stencil & More Release Blog Hop #2 + Giveaway ($300 in Total Prizes!)

 

Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW MARCH 2023 STAMP/DIE/STENCIL & MORE RELEASE BLOG HOP #2 + GIVEAWAY.   Today we are celebrating the newly release products from Altenew with inspiration  for you all.

There are so many beautiful products to choose from this Altenew release.  It was so easy and hard to pick a few to work with.   Here is what I have created with my selection of products:

Let's start with the cover page of my Personal Journal for the year... I mixed the new Stunning Sakura stamp set and Stunning Sakura Coloring stencil to create the background of the page.

Next, I am using the new Delicate Dragonflies bundle ( Delicate Dragonflies Details Hot Foil Plate, and Delicate Dragonflies Die set) to create the delicate elements of the page.  I used the hot foil plate and die to create the wings on vellum, then cut their bodies from metallic cardstock.

The new Roaming Pandas bundle is so cute, and just perfect for a card. I used it to create the focal point of this card.  I paired it with the new Bamboo Branches 3D Embossing folder in the background of the card.

I am using one of the new sentiments created with the Vertical Greetings.  I added a pop of extra shine using left over pieces from the Zero-Waste Leaf Pattern to  complete the card.

For this spread, I am using the new Soft Blossoms bundle to create the flower frame in the journaling section of the layout.

The new Sweet Blossom die set to help me complement the look of the spread. I cut all the pieces from white cardstock, and used ink pads to color each piece, so that it matches the look of the page.

I love Altenew's hot foil plates! So, I quickly pulled the new Modern Rainbow  to create a pieces for  this spread on my family's journal album.

To bring more of the pattern of the plate, I am using the new Abstract Patterns Builder stencil to complete my journaling card.

For my final project, I am combining a few products.  I used the Zero- Waste Leaf Pattern Die to cut the panel of the card from gold paper.  I used the new Fine Watercolor Brushes to add blue watercolor to a piece of cardstock..   I used the new Leaf Essentials Die Set to cut a few leaves from this cardstock.

I added one of the new Vertical Greetings Foiled element as the sentiment for this card.    All of these were just a joy to put together using a selection of this release products.

Pinkfresh Studio March 2022 Washi, Stamp, Die, Stencil, and Hot Foil Release

 

Hi there, and welcome to PINKFRESH STUDIO MARCH 2022 WASHI, STAMPS, DIE, STENCIL, and HOT FOIL RELEASE.

Today we are celebrating a new collection filled with amazing designs, and perfect for all sorts of paper crafting project. I combined  a few products of the release to create this scrapbook layout

I started my page by using the new Nested Hexagons Hot Foil plate, and Nested Hexagons die set to create a series of  foiled hexagons.  I chose to also use the left over foils to create a second impression of the hexagons using my Solid Hot Foil plate.  I set the hexagons as to form frames on the  Happy Heart collection's Small Joys paper.

The new Dahlia Washi Tape and Rainbow Floral Washi tape are gorgeous.    I  added the washi tape to white cardstock,  then used the coordinating die to trim all the florals.   My choice to mix the pink and gold foil tones of the Dahlia Washi tape with the colorful watercolor feel of the Rainbow Floral Washi Tape works nicely in clusters at corners of each hexagon cluster.

I placed a photo of my hubby and I on Valentine's day to two of the frames.  I added small embellishments as the washi tapes provide plenty of interest to each frame.  

The new Rainbow Sentiments Die Cut Ephemera pack is  filled with sentiments and sentences that you can use in your cards and scrapbooks.  I chose to use the script font as extra embellishment in the photo's clusters, and opted for the heavier font to create the title for my page.   I added a small butterfly sticker ( Happy Heart collection) to accent the title of the page.

Just love how this turned out,  all I need is to add my journaling!    I am sure you are all thinking about the possibilities of these new products in your projects.  Remember to check them all in the Pinkfresh Studio Shop.
